"Very light weight and extremely comfortable to wear. Kept waiting for it to go on sale, finally bit the bullet and ordered. First one was a bit snug, sent it back and got a larger size delivered within days. I am very pleased with the purchase. Some things just make you feel good when you wear them - this is one of those things!"

"Nice quality, lightweight, (definitely not cold weather). Although good quality, too pricy for an "extra" jacket."

"The jacket was very well made with soft leather and it was very light., which is what I was looking for..However, when I zipped it up, it pushed out the front and did not look or feel good.The jacket would have been perfect if had a straight bottom with no elastic."

absolutely perfect,

By: rdhd

from LV, NV

"I bought this jacket for a 'special' birthday for my husband. The leather & lining are unbelievably yummy; the jacket is extremely nicely finished inside and out. So this is not a 'work on an outdoor project' garment; it is refined & serves well with a dress shirt & tie or for nice casual wear. And it is the perfect weight for in-between seasons. A winner all around!"

Great Quality & Style, but......,

15 January 2015

By: dbdan

from Diamond Bar, Ca.

"I really liked the look & feel of this quality jacket. Based on most of the input on previous reviews I did order a size smaller than usual. This 'large' jacket fit close to perfect except too tight & restrictive when moving & raising arms. I was apprehensive to try the XL as I feel it would have been too large in other areas. It's a shame I was caught in between sizes & regretfully returned the jacket. Great customer service and original presentation of the jacket being nicely shipped inside a garment bag. The other factor is that the leather is a bit too shiny for my taste & made the jacket feel a little more formal than casual for me."

"Ordered at last minute for my husband. The coat came in a zipped garment bag on wooden hanger. There was no coat in my hometown that could compare....exactly as described online.....light weight and absolutely gorgeous leather. Fit perfectly."

Very fine jacket,

30 December 2014

By: Pitchen

from Baden-Baden/Germany

"I purchased this jacket from ORVIS (UK) after it came up there for sale. After about two weeks of absolutely chaotic (on ORVIS UK's side! ) exchange of e-mails and telephone calls (Customer Service) I finally received "my" jacket and - - I love it!

Very light, indeed, well made - and size "M" fits my statur (174 cm/5'9" - 174 kg/165 lbs) well, if the arms are a little (maybe 1") long. Still, I like this better than too short - and maybe they'll "ride up with wear.." as they say about textiles.

The lovely dark-chocolate color is, as one critic said, indeed a little "plain", as though " the whole jacket had been dipped in a bucket of leather dye..". Well, it's not all that bad - and the "stand-up" collar gives it a "touch of elegance".

I've been wearing the jacket in the house(!) a few times, just for fun (!) and because I like it, and I'm looking forward to wearing it also "outside" come spring!"

Great gift!,

By: ChristmasGG

from Kansas City, Mo

"It was a Christmas gift for my husband and he loves it! Of course, he thought it was unnecessary, but he really likes the lightweight feel of the jacket. The collar is a little high as he does not have a really long neck, but it can be turned down and is workable."

Jacket was perfect gift,

29 December 2014

By: Myhusbandsgifts

"I never know if my husband will like a piece of clothing I buy for him. He is very particular about his clothing and I generally show him something before I purchase it. But this jacket was to be a gift. I took a chance. He loves it. He especially likes the soft leather. He is six foot five and the sizing is perfect. The arms were the perfect length and the length of the jacket itself was correct. Often sizes do not fit him when ordered on line. It is a very simple design which he also liked. And although it is lightweight, it is perfect for him in the cold weather with a sweater."

"I purchased this jacket for myself as a reward for losing over 50 pounds. I am 6"0" 178lbs and went from XXL to L/M sizes. I bought a medium after reading reviews and it fits me perfectly. Love the weight and coloring. Pockets all in the right places. Looking forward to years of enjoyment."

Great Jacket,

"Wonderful leather, supple and well tailored. Medium is plenty roomy to fit over a sweater making the coat wearable most of the year despite it's light weight. Wish the sleeve lining were slipperier to make it easier to don."

Handsome garment,

By: Harrigan

"This jacket is a beautiful garment, extremely soft and comfortable overall. I chose this jacket after looking at many in the last year. I am very pleased with my choice. The zipper works so smoothly. The length of body and sleeves is perfect for my size 44. It is suitable for many occasions. It is everything I expected, a beautiful garment."

A classic jacket,

21 October 2014

By: tuna

from Cincinnati, Ohio

"Soft luxurious leather is the first thing that greets you when you touch this lambskin jacket. Very well tailored, it flatters any figure. Just a tad longer than a standard jacket, it gives you a sophisticated yet casual look that goes great with any outfit. This jacket will suit your needs through Spring and all the way through late fall. Simply, a beautiful jacket."

Classiest Leather Jacket Ever!,

08 October 2014

By: TheBizDoc

from Houston Texas

"Since I live in Texas, it is hard to find lighter weight jackets that will work in the warmer but chilly weather. This new Lambskin Lightweight jacket is so perfect for this climate. I know I will get much wear from it and the styling is so Classy. Soft feel, expensive styling, light weight! It does not get better than this. So proud to own this one."

"This jacket has some good qualities, but the few negatives are fatal. As others have noted, the sizing of the waistband is far out of proportion to the rest of the jacket. At an Orvis store, a salesman assured me that size medium would be much too small for my 5'11", 185 lb frame. I was quite specific about wanting a trim fit, wearing it over just a light shirt or t-shirt. The salesman said I probably would not even be able to zip up a medium. (The store had none in stock, so I had to order via the store's catalog phone, taking the advice to get a large.) When it arrived, I was immediately disappointed. The waistband billowed out quite a few inches from my body and draped down past my hips. The raglan sleeves gave no shape to the shoulders. I wanted "fitted" but got "baggy." I also noted that the finish on the soft leather was nice, but not as pictured. The color was uniformly dark brown with no variation, as if the entire jacket had been dipped in a bucket of leather dye after it had been sewn together. That was not necessarily the deal-breaker for me, but I mention it for further information. I decided to return the jacket instead of exchanging it for a smaller size. It was clear that the problem was not merely one of sizing, but also of design and construction. Note also that there is a shipping charge for a refund return unless it is brought back to a store."
